I don't about you, but I find it really nauseating that Tony Snow's annual income of $168,000 is not sufficient according to the news stories surrounding his departure.
I think that this is yet another slap in the face to Americans who have been working multiple jobs trying to keep their head above water.. This guy is the mouth piece for the White House who has absolutely no regard for reality.
To think that this guy is a member of the Party who fought so hard to prevent the recent and pathetic increase in minimum wage.
Please don't misunderstand me, I am very aware that Mr. Snow is battling cancer. I do have compassion and sincerely hopes he beats this. Perhaps it would have been a little easier to digest the reasons for his departure had he claimed 'medical reasons'.
We don't need any more evidence that this White House is out of touch. Sadly there are volumes of proof. I write this as I personally felt insulted by the insinuation and fact, that earning $168,000 a year just doesn't cut it if you work at the White House.
Thanks for letting me vent.
